Chapter 357 - 345: The Remaining Sword Qi (1/3)
It’s no wonder everyone was so excited; just the thought of the existence of an Immortal Object in the valley was enough to unsettle anyone.
All the Old Ancestors were patiently waiting. Having cultivated to their level, they naturally possessed exceptional patience. Yet, the allure of an Immortal Object was too tempting, and a look of eager anticipation could faintly be seen on everyone’s faces.
However, Zhou Heng was much more composed. He already had two Immortal Objects in his possession: Black Sword and the Nine Mystic Trial Tower, and he previously possessed a Mysterious Heavenly Spirit Crystal. Having seen such objects before, he was naturally able to stay calm.
The crowd was clearly divided. Even among members of the same race, whether humans, Night Demons, or Heavenly Demons, everyone maintained a considerable distance from one another.
At this critical juncture, everyone was afraid of others striking them from behind, depriving them of the chance to find the Immortal Object!
Zhou Heng and Huo Tian stood shoulder to shoulder. After standing for a while, they took out chairs from the Nine Mystic Trial Tower and sat down, appearing not so much treasure seekers as if they were on vacation. This drew many a murderous gaze.
—This youngster carries the legacy of the Three Yang Heavenly Venerate! Not to mention anything else, it is said that even the Treasure Pagoda can block attacks from those in the Divine Infant Realm. How could they not be envious?
Since the valley’s restrictions had not yet been lifted, they wondered whether it was time to make a move.
But the more composed Zhou Heng appeared, the more hesitant the group became to attack him, thinking he must have something up his sleeve and was waiting for them to take the bait!
It was laughable, really— a group of Nascent Soul Realm and Divine Infant Realm Old Ancestors wary of a junior who had just formed his Deities. But with examples such as Blood-Soaked Heavenly Monarch and Yingshan Muzhi perishing at the hands of Zhou Heng, who dared to underestimate him?
